A New Approach to Measurement of Saccharifying Capacities of Crude Cellulase
نویسندگان
چکیده
A practical, quantitative approach has been designed, which makes it possible to accurately estimate the saccharifying activities of crude cellulase preparations for insoluble cellulosics. The challenge in activity determination imposed by changes in hydrolysis time and concentration of cellulase and cellulosics on the assay could be overcome by selection of the specific conversion percentage of cellulose as a function of cellulase concentration, that is, the hydrolysis percentage of filter paper by unit cellulase per minute, as the objective function with respect to different concentrations of crude cellulase. A rational and governing equation for crude cellulase assay was derived, and reliable results for quantitatively estimating the saccharifying activities of crude cellulases during the progress of hydrolysis of several cellulosic substrates were obtained.

This article sets forth a simple cellulase assay procedure. Cellulose is variable in nature, insoluble and resistant to enzymatic attack. As a result there have been a bevy of bewildering cellulase assays published that yielded irrational results. Certain protocols focused on the rapidity of the assay while ignoring that only the most readily susceptible cellulose regions were being hydrolyzed....

Until recently, discoloration of the denim garment has been carried out through various methods including mechanical, chemical, physical and enzymatic treatments. In this study, the nano clay was co-applied in bio stone washing of denim with cellulase to obtain denim garment with a new look and clear effluent. Acid and neutral cellulases along with nano clay were applied on the dyed denim fabri...
